True, but we can't have "This implements the builtins revert and
cherry-pick." in sequencer.c, no?

I thought about this a bit.  I'm completely against the former option
-- I merely meant it as a "I'm confused; help!" rather than a
suggestion; adding contributors' names to the list is a bad idea.  I
looked at some copyright notices in other files and re-evaluated: it's
a cute historical note to have. Unless Johannes wants to remove it
now, I'd like to put the following in sequencer.c:

/*
 * Used to implement the builtins revert and cherry-pick.
 *
 * Copyright (c) 2007 Johannes E. Schindelin
 *
 * Based on git-revert.sh, which is
 *
 * Copyright (c) 2005 Linus Torvalds
 * Copyright (c) 2005 Junio C Hamano
 */

Sorry about the confusion. Feel free to suggest a better "title line".

Thanks.
